D
Broadway traffic streaming light

    D
She came from California

             Cadd9                               G
Running from daylight into this endless electric twilight

    D
And when she dies a ghost is born

         D                                          Cadd9
Singing "Get up, get up, get up, get up out of your memories

                                          G
Get out of the sunlight, get out of that sleeping western town"
[Pre-Chorus]
F                   Cadd9/E         D
Got a little bit of running for you now

F                   Cadd9/E
Got a little way to run
[Chorus]
   Cadd9
To answer all our hopes and fears

  G
A king is leaving Union Square

    F
Did we leave the light on? (Did we leave the light on?)

     Cadd9
Does he need a light on? (Does he need a light on?)

    Cadd9                              G
The king is screaming highway songs of blood and liеs, of hope and wrong

    F
Did we leavе the light on? (Did we leave the light on?)

     Cadd9
Does he need a light on?
[Verse 2]
D
Yesterday when we get older

      D
We'll look back on all the times

           Cadd9                             G
He had you putting a face on instead of just walking away

   D
So paint your face black and blue again

D                                  Cadd9
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up new and put on the clothes

              G
That make you feel like you're not broken
[Pre-Chorus]
F                      Cadd9/E       D
He put a little bit of color in your eye

F                       Cadd9
You got a little bit of color
[Chorus]
   Cadd9
To answer all our hopes and prayers

   G
An angel sang in Union Square

F
Did she leave the light on? (Did she leave the light on?)

   Cadd9
Do we need a light on?

    Cadd9
The congregation came to stare

   G
To touch her dress, to pull her hair

     F
They tore her clothes and left her there

    Cadd9
Did she need a light on? (Does she need a light on?)

   F
Do we need a light on? (Do we need a light on?)

   Am
Do we need a light on? (Do we need a light on?)

   Em
Do we need a light on?

    D
The daydream nations won't come true

    D
The ghosts you made up ghosted you

    Cadd9                                 G
The angel learns to live with things that make her feel uneasy

    D
And after all the dreaming's done

             D                                      Cadd9
She screams "Wake up, wake up, wake up, this is a recording, a ghost of England

           G
Awake in a dream of America"
[Pre-Chorus]
F                          Cadd9/E        D
You see him coming out the corner of your eye

F                                  Cadd9/E
You can hear him breathing when he runs
[Chorus]
    Cadd9
The king of all our hopes and fears

    G
His train departing Union Square

     F
Just moved to somewhere south of here

    Cadd9
Did he leave a light on? (Did he leave a light on?)

    Cadd9
Her feathers stale with sex and beer

    G
The angel of the pavement cries

    F
"If God is dead, why am I here?

       Cadd9            F
Did he leave a light on for me? (Did he leave a light on?)

       Am               F
Did he leave a light on for me? (Did he leave a light on?)

       Am               F
Did he leave a light on for me? (Did he leave a light on?)

       Am               Em
Did he leave a light on for me?"
